# ContactsContract.PinnedPositions

`public static final class ContactsContract.PinnedPositions`
`extends Object` ``

java.lang.Object
↳ | android.provider.ContactsContract.PinnedPositions

Contact-specific information about whether or not a contact has been pinned by the user at a particular position within the system contact application's user interface.

This pinning information can be used by individual applications to customize how they order particular pinned contacts. For example, a Dialer application could use pinned information to order user-pinned contacts in a top row of favorites.

It is possible for two or more contacts to occupy the same pinned position (due to aggregation and sync), so this pinning information should be used on a best-effort basis to order contacts in-application rather than an absolute guide on where a contact should be positioned. Contacts returned by the ContactsProvider will not be ordered based on this information, so it is up to the client application to reorder these contacts within their own UI adhering to (or ignoring as appropriate) information stored in the pinned column.

By default, unpinned contacts will have a pinned position of `PinnedPositions#UNPINNED`. Client-provided pinned positions can be positive integers that are greater than 1.

## Summary

### Constants
`int` | `DEMOTED` Value of pinned position for a contact that a user has indicated should be considered of the lowest priority.
`int` | `UNPINNED` Default value for the pinned position of an unpinned contact.

### Public constructors
`PinnedPositions()`

### Public methods
`static void` | `pin(ContentResolver contentResolver, long contactId, int pinnedPosition)` Pins a contact at a provided position, or unpins a contact.
`static void` | `undemote(ContentResolver contentResolver, long contactId)` Undemotes a formerly demoted contact.

### Inherited methods
From class `java.lang.Object`
`Object` | `clone()` Creates and returns a copy of this object.
`boolean` | `equals(Object obj)` Indicates whether some other object is "equal to" this one.
`void` | `finalize()` Called by the garbage collector on an object when garbage collection determines that there are no more references to the object.
`final Class<?>` | `getClass()` Returns the runtime class of this `Object`.
`int` | `hashCode()` Returns a hash code value for the object.
`final void` | `notify()` Wakes up a single thread that is waiting on this object's monitor.
`final void` | `notifyAll()` Wakes up all threads that are waiting on this object's monitor.
`String` | `toString()` Returns a string representation of the object.
`final void` | `wait(long timeout, int nanos)` Causes the current thread to wait until another thread invokes the `notify()` method or the `notifyAll()` method for this object, or some other thread interrupts the current thread, or a certain amount of real time has elapsed.
`final void` | `wait(long timeout)` Causes the current thread to wait until either another thread invokes the `notify()` method or the `notifyAll()` method for this object, or a specified amount of time has elapsed.
`final void` | `wait()` Causes the current thread to wait until another thread invokes the `notify()` method or the `notifyAll()` method for this object.

## Constants

### DEMOTED

    public static final int DEMOTED

Value of pinned position for a contact that a user has indicated should be considered of the lowest priority. It is up to the client application to determine how to present such a contact - for example all the way at the bottom of a contact list, or simply just hidden from view.

Constant Value: -1 (0xffffffff)

### UNPINNED

    public static final int UNPINNED

Default value for the pinned position of an unpinned contact.

Constant Value: 0 (0x00000000)

## Public constructors

### PinnedPositions

    public PinnedPositions ()

## Public methods

### pin

    public static void pin (ContentResolver contentResolver,
                    long contactId,
                    int pinnedPosition)

Pins a contact at a provided position, or unpins a contact.

Parameters
`contentResolver` | `ContentResolver`: to perform the pinning operation on.
`contactId` | `long`
`pinnedPosition` | `int`: the position to pin the contact at. To unpin a contact, use `PinnedPositions#UNPINNED`.

### undemote

    public static void undemote (ContentResolver contentResolver,
                    long contactId)

Undemotes a formerly demoted contact. If the contact was not previously demoted, nothing will be done.

Parameters
`contentResolver` | `ContentResolver`: to perform the undemote operation on.
`contactId` | `long`: the id of the contact to undemote.
